A plant every way larger than the preceding species, and more 

 branched. Leaves very obtuse at base, acute, sometimes slighdv 

 acuminate at the summit. Petals oblong, not entirely smooth on the 

 inner surface, though less tubercled than in the preceding species. 



The specimens in my possession were collected amon-* the moun- 

 tains by Dr. Macbride, and near Athens, Georgia, by Mr. Green.

^ This species h inserted on the authority of Michaux. I have spe- 

 cimens sent me from Athens, by M\\ Green, of an Uvularia, 8— 12 

 inches high. Stem sheathed near the base, pubescent and sometimes 

 divided at the summit, slightly angled. Leaves lanceohite, sessile, 

 amplexicaule, of the same colour on each side, pubescent along the 

 margins. Flowers 1 or 2 on each stem, rather large, smooth on the 

 inner surface, on peduncles nearly an inch long. Do they belong to 

 this species ? 



Grows on the mountains of Carolina, Mich*
